"If it were me I would be out here with my friends, close the door, let the kids watch the movies inside - maybe it all makes more sense now," Darren Palmer said, referring to Bianca and Carla's disappointing lounge room inside.

Hayden and Sara finished in third place by just half a point, earning a further $10,000 off their reserve.

"How funky is this? It's really cool," Shaynna Blaze said.

"I am seeing dots of white and paint everywhere. These guys have got four spaces but we've got to look at every element of what we're judging."

Luckily their laundry and study were also impressive spaces that fit cohesively with the rest of the apartment.

"I think this is the best thing I've seen them deliver all Block," Whitaker said.

Jess and Norm finished in fourth place, and were the only team not to win any money off their reserve.
